1914-S PCGS MS-63 (green label), 1924 PCGS MS-64 (green label), and 1927-D PCGS MS-63 (green label). 1914-S PCGS MS-63 (green label), 1924 PCGS MS-64 (green label), and 1927-D PCGS MS-63 (green label).
Lot Title: 1914-S PCGS MS-63 (green label), 1924 PCGS MS-64 (green label), and 1927-D PCGS MS-63 (green label).
Description: Diverse quality is evident over two decades of buffalo nickels represented by this trio, all certified in NGC green-label holders. 1914-S is a lead-grey example that displays wonderful texture in the fields - the result of well worn dies. It's a premium quality piece at MS-63 that compensates for minimal luster with exemplary, vintage surface quality. 1924 exudes steely sky-blue tone intertwined with sunset-gold colors, all on sharp details, and is perfectly graded at MS-64. Finally, 1927-D is rather flat, with considerable die erosion near the rims and a lot of pre-existing planchet ticks. Strictly speaking, this last might be a lot better looking in an MS-62 holder, but most collectors realize the branch mints were having trouble striking up fully detailed nickels in the mid to late 1920s. Three coin lot.
